Over the span of 14 years, 360 miners-turned crafstmen carved a rough granite mountain into a polished Monument.

Today, in dozens of intricate steps, their descendants, our craftsmen, carry on this tradition of quality and excellence with every piece of Mt. Rushmore Black Hills Gold and diamond jewelry.

Unlike most jewelry, Black Hills Gold, is uniquely created by many handcrafted steps. Each piece can go through up to 40 individual stages, including design, wax, carving, casting, grinding, and polishing, soldering, cleaning, wriggling, bright cutting, and engraving.
